3 x C. intermedia
All photos taken today.
C. intermedia, var. Orlata 'Rio' AM/AOS
This plant belongs to my tenant, but it provides a good measure of intermedia quality. When awarded the NS was 4.48", in this blooming it is 4.13".
C. intermedia, var. Orlata 'Fair Orchids' (4N)
This is a first bloom seedling from a Miranda sib cross. The NS is a hair over 4.5", and the substance is very heavy. However, it lacks the 'frilly' lip of the 'Rio' clone.
C. intermedia, var. (or fma?) Suave 'Fair Orchids' (4N)
Also from a Miranda sib cross. This flower is somewhat smaller at around 3.75". but again with the heavy 4N substance. This is the 3rd time this plant is blooming.
